The Return of Muxtape

By: Spacelab Research Staff

After Muxtape shut itself down last month, the site remained below the radar, not revealing what it was up to, saying only that "Muxtape will be unavailable for a brief period while we sort out a problem with the RIAA."

Fast forward (get it?) to a month later, and the site has posted a bold new manifesto, with a telling of the tale of the last month. Muxtape will go back online, a little different than last time, with a focus on bands instead of the rest of us. We'll all be able to benefit from where the site is going though:

"Muxtape is relaunching as a service exclusively for bands, offering an extremely powerful platform with unheard-of simplicity for artists to thrive on the internet."

Muxtape founder Justin Ouellette releayed a long history and accounting of his dealing with the RIAA and major recording labels at the Muxtape site.
